We have a big maple in our yard and more through the neighborhood. The sound of wind running through their leaves is very calming.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what is turning (and has been turning) the US into a shithole country.

But my Maga coworker just told me she wants to make everything more expensive! Now I don’t know who to believe; you both sound equally sensible. /s

I always turned them off, unless I was just going to eat dinner and couldn’t save. The lasers for old systems like the PS2 and Sega Saturn have a longevity, and will wear out over time. I’d rather not speed that up since I plan on keeping them around. I was also scolded for wasting electricity growing up, so that is burned into my habits as well.

Sarcasm tag isn’t necessary. Those who benefit from it see these as legitimate questions.

Congrats, you’ve won at ADHD.

I have no idea, but I just assume at this point that even mentioning Lemmy on that site would result in either a ban or a shadowban from Spez’s lackeys.

Dead communities or Bot communities. Pick one.

There’s a few smaller communities on reddit that I like that don’t have a presence here, which is unfortunate. I feel ya.

Reddit is only good for massively reposted memes at this point. Any real communities with any semblance of civility are better on Lemmy, in my opinion, thanks to Reddit’s policy of shooting themselves in the foot.

Edit: even with memes, I’ve found Lemmy to be the better option.

One can be folded into oragami. The other can be shot from a slingshot. I am truly enlightened.

Another reason why I’m glad I made the switch to Lemmy.

I worked at home depot, and our manager made people sign a form before having a Hi-Lo load a pallet of floor tile into their truck because it would cause their suspension to bottom out. They’d do it, and drive off with zero leeway on their shocks.

We had one guy come in bragging about how his super-expensive hydraulic suspension could handle it. We loaded 2 pallets of tile into his truck bed. I bet he felt every little crack in the road driving to the job site.

Aren’t submarines supposed to sink?

Honestly, I went to a small sling backpack to get everything out of my pockets. It gets uncomfortable, but I didn’t realize it because I was putting everything in my pockets for so long. Sitting with one side higher because of my wallet in my back pocket, and a big bulky phone shoved against my thigh, etc. Now I have a belt case for my phone and everything else in my bag, and jeans have never been more comfortable.

It’s almost as if being publicly traded is bad for the stability and longevity of a company. Who would have thought?

[Disclaimer: I only read the headline]

Now do beam beans.

I guess I do!

Goof Troop A Goofy Movie would be one of my picks. 1995, I think.

Wouldn’t the fart bubbles make the pee go everywhere? Like air bubbles in a garden hose when you first turn it on.

At this point, I’d assume both. Also, people are wearing fur-suits to Renaissance fairs now.
